That is untrue. The Lord did not say it, but Satan said it to tho Lord, when the evil one wanted Job still more afflicted.

Superintendent Kimball, for re fusing to prostitute the life saving service to advance the interests of one. Bwhan?n.member of Congress from New Jersey, has been vio? lently attacked by him.

The charge originated, however, ;t has transpired,in no higher motive, than those incident to the failure of Buchanan to convince the Su? perintendent that it was his duty to turn out Democratic snrfmen in station, in his district and fill their places with hishenchmen,and rests probably upon as shallow a foun? dation.

ACC?MAC COURT-HOUSE. VA SATURDAY, APRIL 5, 1S90. Entered at the Postoflice at Aecomac (J H.;Va.. iis second-class matter. The Republicans, despite their declarations as In the advantages of protection, cannot agree upon a tariff hill. ,In election rimes the Republican wants no better theme for the display of his oratory, but when he is called upon to vote up? on the tariff as a practical question many of them have constituents who demand low tariff too earn pally to be ignored. In deference to that sentiment so many of the Republican representatives in Congress are protesting against the Republican tariff bill presented by Chairman McKinley of the Ways and Means Committee on last Monday, that it has no chance of passing either branch of Cong gress. It does not meet the views of the New England manufactur? ers and even the high protection? ists of Pennsylvania are dissatis? fied with it and yet it will effect, it is claimed, a reduction of $45, ()0(),0UO ia revenues.
